 +====== How to play, copy and rip encrypted DVDs on Debian (libdvdcss) ======
  
 +
 +Most commercial DVDs are encrypted with CSS (the Content Scramble System), which attempts to restrict the software that can play a DVD. Hence, even in the age of streaming and torrenting playing and ripping your favorite DVDs still requires some effort. Luckily, Debian provides a relatively simple way to circumvent these measurements so you can backup all your nice DVDs from the 90's and 00's!
 +
 +The libdvd-pkg package provides required libraries for playing and ripping video DVDs with a media player such as VLC SMplayer, Totem and others. In addition, it automates the process of downloading source files, compiling them, and installing the binary packages
